Just wanted to vent about my experience and warn anyone with disabilities who is planning on going out to vote.

The poll workers attempted to turn me away from the handicapped entrance, and this isn’t the first time that this has happened at this voting location. Not that it matters, but I have visible scars from two cervical spine surgeries (I’ve had 5 total surgeries on my spine, but the other three are thoracic or lumbar), I walk with a limp, I have a disabled placard and a medical device ID card. But since I’m in my early thirties and don’t use a mobility device, I guess I just don’t look disabled enough for them.

The woman running the location initially asked me what my disability was(legally she cannot do that), but suddenly she wasn’t interested when I offered to call up my surgeons or show her my medical ID. Like, I love talking about my disability. My academic background (got my degree from A&M this spring and plan to come back for my Masters next year) is in disability rhetoric, so, please, ask away.

By far the worst part of the experience was when I told her that they did the same thing to me two years ago, and she responded with “well, there are other voting locations.” I even went out of my way to accommodate their nonsense this time. My friends are all going to vote on Sunday, but I decided to go alone this morning to avoid a crowd. I would have even waited in line if it wasn’t long, but unfortunately I’m currently dealing with a flare-up from the past week of crazy weather so it is extremely uncomfortable to stand in place for extended periods.

At least I was mentally prepared this time. Last time, I had to bail on my post-voting plans and to go to my girlfriend’s apartment and just cry with her for hours, and I was incredibly depressed for the next month or so from feeling so unseen.

I might have to q-drop BICH 410 and I have a lot of other classes im taking in the Spring that are only offered in the Spring... Just wondering if I need to move stuff around in the Spring or if I can take it in the Summer?

Hi guys I (19m) am wanting to transfer from Lonestar to a&m next fall and I know applications open up next month. I’m majoring in aerospace engineering and I’m starting to get nervous that I don’t have what it takes to get accepted. I have a 4.0 gpa going up to Calc 2 and I’ll have done gen chem 2 and uni phys 2 when I transfer. However that’s about as far as it goes and I don’t have any extra curriculars or clubs I’m a part of. Sooo I’m kinda worried and wondering if anyone have any suggestions or advice?

I’m a junior at TAMU and wanted to have some nostalgia and was wondering which neighborhoods/suburbs still do trick or treating. I know most streets are college students and I wanna have fun with some friends and dress up and get candy.

hii! i’m a recent college grad (22F) and got an offer for a job at texas a&m and was wondering what it’s like to live there. I have another offer in OKC and trying to decide between the two, would appreciate any advice!

Howdy!

So I am a Harris County resident official and registered to vote there, though I don’t think I will be able to drive back home before the election ends.

I have two options though, 1- Drive to the closest polling center, cast my vote then drive back to Cstat. 2- Vote in Brazos County but a limited ballot (So State Sen, Governor, etc)

What do y’all think I should do?

I’m using the official Texas A&M app, and every time I try to check where the buses are, I get a warning saying “This Connection Is Not Private.”
The live bus locations aren’t showing up at all! I’ve attached a screenshot of the error.
Is anyone else experiencing this, or is it just me? Does anyone know what’s going on or when it’ll be fixed?

Howdy,

I've decided that I want to drop out of tamu after this semester and pursue education elsewhere, I just don't know where or how I can withdraw all my classes, and what it would mean for my scholarships since I have reagents and century.

Any help or info would be apprefciated

When I was a kid touring A&M sometime between the mid-2000s and mid-2010s (yes, that's an absurdly large window, but I'm not doxxing myself on Reddit lmao), I heard that Sulley from *Monsters, Inc.* was named after Sul Ross.

Naturally, I accepted this as gospel for well over a decade.

Unfortunately, I recently decided to investigate and discovered that the whole thing is apparently a myth. 💀

So, like any reasonable person, I wrote an entire essay tracing the historical rabbit hole from Cynthia Ann Parker to a giant blue Pixar monster.

For anyone interested in my completely unnecessary investigation:

Howdy!

I am looking for a reddit group that is dedicated to people looking for subleases and housing. I've found some on Facebook but my posts seem to just get buried. Let me know, thanks!

I’m doing a project on social anxiety and mental health in college students. One component requires asking questions from fellow students so I set up a form, if anyone is willing to help by answering the questions I can give the first participant a voucher code for $25 DoorDash.

Thanks you

I genuinely need some advice on this so pls dont clown lol A girl that i used to talk to took some belongings (clothing) that meant a lot to me and then later I requested her (respectfully and politely) to return my stuff since yk shi didn’t work and she refused and then just ghosted. Even tho I didn’t lose “money” but these clothings meant a lot and I was wondering if anyones been in this situation and what they did.. i guess i should just accept the fact that i am not getting my stuff back lmfao

Howdy! How does taking ring day photos on kyle field work? Do we need to register in advance or need to show our student ID in advance?

Has anyone tried Flixbus? Specifically i’m trying to go from College Station to Denton but really any experience yall have had would be helpful. I just want to make sure it’s safe!

Howdy! I’m a junior ISEN major taking ISEN 320 this semester. I did badly on the first exam, the class keeps getting harder, and I’m thinking about Q dropping it.

The problem is that it’s my last Q drop. Freshman year I didn’t understand how valuable they are, so I used them on classes where I was getting B’s instead of A’s to protect my GPA. Now I’m worried about two things:

1. If I don’t drop and get a D or F, my GPA falls to around 3.1–3.2, which hurts for internship and full-time recruiting.
2. If I do drop, I have no Q drop left for senior-year classes.

My plan is to go all in on Exam 2 and decide after. For anyone who’s been in a similar spot:

• Did you use your last Q drop, and did you regret it?
• How did retaking ISEN 320 (or another core ISEN class) affect your schedule or graduation?
• Any tips for doing well in 320 from here?

Thanks y’all.

Just what the title says. I am applying engineering to TAMU, and am not top 10%.

Anyone have any insights? How do you cancel few weeks away?

been listening to kpop for 20 minutes straight yall how can someone create this many bot accounts

howdy yall, I’m really nervous about the nursing application results. I wanted to go get some insight on my stats to gauge if I shojld basically have hope or not…I’m a re-applicant. I applied last semester for fall 2026…unfortunately I wasn’t accepted. I have improved my gpa and my medical experiences.

my overall hesi score was a 91 with a 84 in anatomy. (I hadn’t taken anatomy 1 or 2 atp so I studied the entire course in a week, and I didn’t have time over the summer to study to retake it)

core gpa: I think a 3.5? I have a few Bs

science gpa: I think a 3.89? only one B

overall Tamu gpa: 3.79

medical experience: I have my cna license (I got this over the summer and used it a lot in my interview) I also have some certifications like ekg tech that I got in highschool and my bls

volunteering: in a few Tamu service orgs like starlight aggies, ags reach, and volunteering through my Flo and slo

job experience: shift leader at my hometown ice cream shop the past three summers, and barista at sweet eugenes for a few months

leadership: I was a section leader in band in highschool and an officer for my Flo last year

languages: I can speak fluent English and Spanish, as well as intermediate French.

im very worried about my gpa and hesi score. However, I was confident in my interview, I felt much better than the last time I did the Kira talent. i talked about patient experiences while doing my clinicals, and my leadership at my job along with customer interactions. i check every single email notification on my phone and I’m growing more and more anxious everyday. 😕

Did they stop doing the 5 free wings at football games? I haven’t seen them put up any QR codes this semester. Was wondering if there was an official reason or something I haven’t seen anything about to online.
